Photoprotection in children is of major importance. Emphasis is placed on physical photoprotection that includes clothing, hats,

sunglasses, and shade. Photoprotection using creams with UV filters is intended for children over six months of age. Products

with a broad spectrum of protection are recommended, which are water-resistant, with an SPF factor 50+, with a predominance

of physical filters, photostable, dispersible, and cosmetically acceptable with a low irritation potential.
